Ad maiorem Dei gloriam By Hugh J. McNichol
There is a new wind blowing within the architectural designs of Church buildings in Catholicism. It is the restoration of the Church's ancient and traditional appreciation of our Eucharistic celebration as an act of transcendence towards a deeper understanding of the Divine. New church buildings and sanctuaries are undergoing a restoration of traditional applications of classical art and architectural motifs, which thankfully call our liturgical prayer to an awesome appreciation of the mysteries of salvation history. Time and space again are reconciled through the architecture of this shrine that loudly calls the worshiper to metaphysical and ontological beliefs that go beyond modern presentations of secular humanism, towards an ascent into the sacred mystery of God's existence.
